Some of those choices enriched this story of the inequities in supposedly perfect Shaker Heights, Ohio.
Elena could immediately take that statement back and apologize.
Lexie, Moody, and Trip are horrified by what Elenas said.
She also tells Elena she is sick of trying to be perfect and, in fact, isnt perfect.
Elena screams at a pitch I didnt know Reese Witherspoon was capable of achieving.
Maybe Izzys the only one who actually had it right, Lexie says.
Her words strike a chord.
We kept thinking would it be Lexie?
Would it be Moody?
Tigelaartold our Maria Elena Fernandez.
And I couldnt buy it as any of them.
Izzy has not been marginalized in the series solely by Elena.
The three elder siblings each have a relationship with Pearl, while Izzys bond is with Mia.
I buy that Elena would scream at Izzy.
I dont believe her brothers would light those matches, either.
Not long before all this happens, Izzy gets into two separate arguments with Moody and Lexie.
Shes not on actively warm terms with either of them, and she and Trip barely speak.
The idea that they want to rally around Izzys cause seems very out of character.
Also, these kids are not dumb.
Theyre going to burn the house down.
But it also means that Lexie, Trip, and Moody are destroying everything they own.
Bebe is desperate and this feels very much like a drastic measure she would take.
The other storylines are resolved with either more or less ambiguity than the novel offers.
Im inclined to believe the latter.
The ending for Izzy is most ambiguous of all.
Like the book,Little Fires Everywhereends by showing us a regretful Elena and Izzy out on her own.
But the series doesnt fill in the rest.
Unlike Ngs book, the Hulu drama seems to want to leave a little room for a season two.
